Extract text from Model or settings files (BRG)
To convert BRG Files to another format, you need Age of Mythology or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "3D Game Model File" file type, you need software like Age of Mythology or a similar tool.
The .brg file extension primarily represents two very different, highly specialized formats: an Age of Mythology Model File or a ProjectWise User Settings File.
The game model format is used by Age of Mythology, a classic real-time strategy game published by Microsoft, to store 3D character, terrain, and building geometry. The settings format is utilized by ProjectWise, an enterprise engineering collaboration platform by Bentley Systems, to save specific user environment configurations.
Both variations of the .brg format are highly restrictive. They are strictly proprietary, closed-source, and natively unsupported by modern operating systems or web browsers. The ProjectWise variant ties you to an expensive enterprise subscription. The Age of Mythology variant consists of compiled binary game data; you cannot open or edit it without obscure, community-built modding tools.
Converting a .brg game model usually means extracting the raw geometry to standard 3D targets like OBJ or FBX. During this extraction, game-specific animations, materials, and rigging data are inevitably lost. ProjectWise settings files are rarely converted, though they might be exported internally to XML for backup purposes.
Because this is a closed, proprietary format, standard online converters fail to process it. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying text or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your BRG file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our BRG converter.
